Chapter 190

Looking at the girl serving tea in front of him, Wang Teng thanked her.

The other party looked about the same age as him, maybe even smaller, with simple and plain clothes, not as gorgeous as the urban girls, with a thin body and a small face, but when facing him, he did not show timidity, and his face was quite calm.

Her home is a kind of self-built private house. In fact, when I walked over just now, I saw other houses in the village are like this.

Wang Teng took a look at the situation in the house without any trace. It was a bit shabby and shabby, but he knew her family situation well in his heart.

He took a sip of water, scrubbed the cup in his hand and asked, "See, you're about my age, didn't you go to school?"

"The situation at home is special, and I dropped out of school."

Bai Xiaocao sat down opposite Wang Teng, shook her head, and instead of saying more, asked, "Aunt Li said you want to go into the mountains?"

"Yes." Wang Teng nodded, and asked again: "I heard that your father also entered the mountain with other people?"

"Yes, three young people." Bai Xiaocao said.

"Are they here looking for this?" Wang Teng took out his phone and showed her the picture of Huanyancao.

"Phantom Flame Grass! You came here to find this too?" Bai Xiaocao said in surprise.

"You actually know." Wang Teng was surprised, nodded and said, "Yes, that's exactly why I came here. It seems that those people have the same goal as me. Do you know where to find them?"

"I know, I know. My dad told me, but I haven't been there." Bai Xiaocao said.

Wang Teng frowned, and pondered: "Then do you have a map of the mountain?"

"No, we only rely on experience when entering the mountain." Bai Xiaocao shook her head and said.

Wang Teng suddenly had a headache. If he was allowed to enter the mountain by himself and search aimlessly, it would not be dangerous, but it would definitely waste a lot of time.

At this time, Bai Xiaocao said, "Although I have never been there, I know the way and can take you there."

"Oh!" Wang Teng couldn't help but glanced at the girl. He didn't expect that she would take the initiative to take him into the mountain. Wang Teng had no reason to refuse, but he knew that the girl was definitely out of kindness, so he asked calmly: "You what do you need?"

"I need money, and I also want to find my dad. They went to the mountain for a day and a night and didn't come back. With my dad's experience, it is impossible to go for such a long time. They must have encountered some accident." Bai Xiaocao bit her lip and said.

reasonable.

Wang Teng nodded and said, "Yes, you can make an offer."

"Three...five thousand!" Bai Xiaocao gritted her teeth, and the three thousand that she was going to export turned into five thousand, and then looked at Wang Teng with some trepidation.

If she didn't open her mouth like this before, but now the mountains are getting more and more dangerous, and going into the mountains is no joke, and she has to take certain risks.

Moreover, the place where the Phantom Flame Grass is located is relatively deep. If their family hadn't really needed money urgently, his father would not have agreed to those people before going into the mountains to help them find the Phantom Flame Grass.

Wang Teng thought that Bai Xiaocao would charge a high price, but he didn't expect it to be only five thousand, so he was slightly taken aback.

Bai Xiaocao thought he thought it was too expensive, a look of disappointment flashed in her eyes, and said hesitantly, "Otherwise three thousand is fine."

"Just five thousand. If you bring me somewhere before noon, I can give you a little more." Wang Teng waved his hand and said indifferently.

A look of astonishment appeared on Bai Xiaocao's face, and then she said pleasantly, "No problem, I know a shortcut, and I can definitely get there before noon."

"Okay, let's go now?" Wang Teng said.

"Wait for me, I'll change clothes and get some tools." Bai Xiaocao got up immediately and ran into the back room.

...

After a while, Wang Teng heard a faint voice of conversation coming from the back room. One of the voices was a little weak. If it wasn't for the strong hearing of the warriors, he really couldn't hear what they were talking about.

"Mom, I have something to do with my friends. I'll ask Aunt Li to bring you some food at noon."

"Don't worry, just go about your business, don't worry about me, and don't bother Aunt Li, I can make some simple things to eat myself."

"That's okay, I should be able to come back tonight."

Bai Xiaocao was very fast, changed into a smart attire in a few minutes, came out of the house with a hatchet in his hand, and carried a basket on his back.

"Let's go."

Wang Teng took a look at her, got up and followed her out the door, to the village.

In the field ridge outside the village, the former middle-aged woman was busy with work, Bai Xiaocao shouted to her from a distance: "Auntie, I want to take him into the mountains, my mother is alone at home, please help take care of her."

"Hey, good." The middle-aged woman raised her head and shouted, "You must be careful when you enter the mountain."

"Okay." Bai Xiaocao replied.

...

After crossing the main road, Bai Xiaocao took Wang Teng and turned into a side path. After walking for a long time, the two of them went up the mountain.

Chunhua Mountain still retains a relatively good wild form. After being baptized by the force, it has returned to its original state, and there are more wild animals in it.

The surrounding trees are tall and lush, and there are many dead branches and fallen leaves on the ground, without too many human traces.

It seems that the nearby villagers do not often go into the mountains.

However, Wang Teng had seen virgin forests in other worlds before. Compared with them, Chunhua Mountain was far behind, so there was nothing to be surprised about.

"Be careful, there are poisonous snakes and poisonous insects in the mountains." Bai Xiaocao walked in front, chopping the bushes and thorns on both sides with a machete, and quickly cleared a path for people to pass through.

"Just pay attention to yourself." Wang Teng said calmly.

Bai Xiaocao frowned, sighed inwardly, but didn't say anything more, just distracted her attention to Wang Teng's side.

The two walked for more than an hour. During this period, there were no accidents. Bai Xiaocao skillfully avoided some potentially dangerous places.

At this moment, Bai Xiaocao stopped to rest for a while, took a sip of water, pointed to the left and said, "Let's go through here later. My dad took me there before. Although it was a bit difficult to walk, the distance is much shorter. We Surely we can arrive before noon."

"Yeah." Wang Teng nodded, sat down on the stone next to him, and said, "Let's take a rest first."

Bai Xiaocao sat down on another stone, took out something that looked like dried meat, and asked, "Do you want it?"

"I'm not hungry, you can eat." Wang Teng shook his head and said.

Bai Xiaocao didn't force it, and started eating by herself, while secretly looking at Wang Teng curiously.

She was startled suddenly, and found that Wang Teng didn't look tired at all, he didn't sweat or pant, just like walking.

"Is this guy a martial arts practitioner?" Bai Xiaocao secretly guessed.

"Speaking of which, they all came to look for the Phantom Flame Grass. That Phantom Flame Grass must be very valuable. It would be great if I could pick two of them." Bai Xiaocao thought hopefully.

After a ten-minute break, the two moved on.

"My dad and the others don't seem to be going this way." Bai Xiaocao said while clearing the road.

"I felt a little strange when I went up the mountain just now. I didn't see any other man-made traces along the way." Wang Teng said.

"They should have taken another route." Bai Xiaocao was a little puzzled, and said, "I haven't been in the mountains with my dad for a long time. Did he find another route?"

A white light suddenly flashed in Wang Teng's mind, and Bai Xiaocao also turned his head at this time, and both of them could see the same thought from the other's expression.

"Unless this road is dangerous!!"

"Be careful, your father can't give up this familiar road for no reason." Wang Teng reminded.

Bai Xiaocao nodded, immediately became more vigilant and cautious.

They walked for more than half an hour, but Bai Xiaocao quietly let out a sigh of relief as they still didn't encounter the danger they imagined.

Click!

Suddenly, it felt like she stepped on something.

Bai Xiaocao paused suddenly, not daring to act rashly, and slowly looked down.

I saw an ant nest that looked like a haystack was stepping under her feet, it was almost integrated with the dead branches and leaves on the ground, it was very inconspicuous, so she relaxed for a while, and stepped on it without noticing it.

Of course Wang Teng also saw this scene, seeing that she was still in a daze, he quickly pulled her back.

buzz buzz...

The next moment, there was a dense buzzing sound, and a group of black flying ants flew out of the ant nest in an instant, rushing towards Wang Teng and the others with a clatter.

Not only that, but a bunch of black crawling ants appeared on the ground, much larger than ordinary ants. If you observe carefully, you will find that their heads are especially huge, and their mouthparts are hideous. coming.

"It's over, this is a strange beast!"

Bai Xiaocao's face was pale. She was cautious all the way, thinking of many possible dangers, but she never thought it would be a nest of ants.

Ant-like beasts don't have much attack power individually, but they are all in groups, and there are hundreds of thousands to millions of terrifying numbers in a nest, and there is basically no way out when they encounter them.

At this time, a group in the sky and a group on the ground rushed towards the two of them in a dark mass, which made people's scalps tingle.

"I'm sorry, I hurt you." Bai Xiaocao said guiltily.

"It's not dead yet, so why apologize, it's just a nest of ants." Wang Teng said flatly.

Seeing her frightened like this, the original force of the fire element in her body gushed out, and a scorching breath greeted the ants in the sky and on the ground.

boom!

The black masses of ants immediately turned into two seas of flames, and were instantly burned to nothingness, leaving only a pile of ashes.

Under Wang Teng's control, the fire did not spread to the surrounding trees, and it was extinguished in an instant.

Bai Xiaocao stared at him with wide glasses.

"Wu... Warrior!"

She thought that Wang Teng was at best a warrior, but she never thought that he was a warrior!

Such a young warrior!

Bai Xiaocao felt that she really gained knowledge.

"gone!"

Wang Teng's voice brought her back from the shock to reality, and subconsciously walked forward, but she was still absent-minded.

"Come back to your senses, don't step on anything that shouldn't be stepped on, if it's a poisonous snake or something, just bite you, I can't save you." Wang Teng said.

Bai Xiaocao shuddered, and suddenly came back to her senses, pulled herself together, and never dared to take it lightly.

Finally, at almost twelve o'clock, the two arrived at the edge of a cliff.

"It's here." Bai Xiaocao stopped, observed the surrounding environment, and said, "My dad has seen it here before, you can look for it."

Wang Teng glanced around and saw no trace of the Phantom Flame Grass, so he couldn't help frowning, walked to the edge of the cliff, and looked down.

"It turned out to be here."

He smiled and jumped down.

All kinds of plants and vines grow on the cliff, among which more than a dozen plants growing in the grass are the Phantom Flame Grass.

While Wang Teng jumped down, he stretched out his hand to grab a vine, picked the three closest Phantom Flame Grass, and then swung gently to the place where the other Phantom Flame Grass grew. Just as he was about to pick them, suddenly a green The shadow flew out from the grass and attacked Wang Teng.

"Be careful!" Bai Xiaocao on top exclaimed.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time."

The corner of Wang Teng's mouth hooked up, and with a wave of his palm, the original force of the fire element gushed out, and the green shadow burned with flames all over, and fell down the cliff with a hiss.

This is obviously a small green snake, because the color is similar to the surrounding vegetation, it is difficult to be found hiding in the grass.

"It's just a strange beast, but it doesn't pose much threat."

Wang Teng thought to himself.

Suddenly, several small green snakes sprang out, and opened their mouths in mid-air to bite Wang Teng.

Wang Teng solved it easily, and then picked more than a dozen Phantom Flame Grass.

As for the so-called psychedelic effect, in terms of his mental strength, it was like a mosquito bite, unable to confuse him at all.

Wang Teng kicked his left foot on the bulge of the stone wall, then returned to the cliff, and landed lightly beside Bai Xiaocao.

"It's done, let's go back." Wang Teng put away the Huanyancao, turned his head and said to Bai Xiaocao.

"This is the end." Bai Xiaocao still hadn't recovered.

This is too fast!

She thought she was going to go through a tough battle, but Wang Teng killed several snake-like beasts that were very dangerous to them with two slaps.

"This guy seems to be really strong!" Bai Xiaocao was surprised, and thought a little enviously: "If only I were as strong as him, I can make a lot of money every minute."

"Otherwise, what do you think? Let's go." Wang Teng smiled and returned the same way.

But suddenly he stopped again.

"Why didn't you leave again?" Bai Xiaocao asked in surprise.

"Someone is coming!" Wang Teng said.

"Someone is here, could it be my dad and the others?" Bai Xiaocao said with surprise in her heart.

Soon several figures came from another direction, one of the middle-aged men was obviously taken aback when he saw Bai Xiaocao, and exclaimed, "Xiaocao?"

"Dad, it's me. It's great that you're fine. It made me and Mom worry all night." Bai Xiaocao said happily.

"You girl, didn't I not let you enter the mountain? Why did you come in?" The middle-aged man blamed.

"Hey, someone paid me to lead the way, and I accompanied him." Bai Xiaocao laughed dryly, pointed at Wang Teng and said, "But don't worry, he's very strong. Look, I'm not a problem at all. do not have it."

"You lead the way!" The middle-aged man's complexion changed slightly: "What is he here for?"

"It's also picking the phantom flame grass. We just finished picking it, so you are late." Bai Xiaocao said quite proudly.

After all, she was ahead of her father this time, although it was all thanks to Wang Teng.

However, when the middle-aged man heard this, his face turned a little ugly. He turned his head carefully to look at the three people who came with him, and quickly apologized: "Everyone, I'm really sorry, the little girl is not sensible..."

"Hmph!" The three of them snorted coldly, without even listening to him finish, they frowned, looked at Wang Teng and said, "Did you pick the Phantom Flame Grass?"
